    UPDATE: Video of the incident...

    <HR>

    I thought twice about posting this..but with Dwight involved, you all know the drill with the media....spreading like a wildfire.

    Surprising JB knew about it.

    JB is the only one involved here who looks silly. Trying to shield the can with his body... Reminds me of kids who are caught red-handed and hold the item behind their back. Nice.

    As far as the narrative goes... It would seem that only big men with terrible hands would benefit from stickum. Would conceivably increase his rebounding while decreasing turnovers. Would also make [FT] shooting more difficult.

    I wonder if there's more to this...seems pretty stupid for Dwight to do it in the open and for them to leave the can there...youd think the equipment guy and Dwight could easily do a better job of hiding that.

    Doesnt say he did..only that he tried to cover it up...my guess is he wasn't in the loop, but figured it out when the refs started investigating.

    Hopefully Dwight gets suspended for life for being a dirty cheat.

    Harden was supposed to take it back to the locker-room, but turned it over at the scorer's table after holding it for about 22 seconds.

    Howard reportedly used Harden's leftover KT Tape. It began pealing within seconds, exposing the "Stickum."

    Wouldn't mind seeing Dwight get suspended for the rest of the year. We'd play better.

    Is Dwight an idiot or is Dwight an idiot?

    Dwight is an idiot so it makes sense for him to use it.

    Either Dwight is incredibly stupid or the plan was to get it on the balll to mess with Milsap...so I guess both? :eek:
